EXPLANATORY NOTE

On March 3, 2010, International Commercial Television Inc (“ICTV”) filed a Form 8-K/A on Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements.  As disclosed in that report, the Company found certain errors in the bad debt and return reserves amounts in our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 as filed in the Form 10-K/A on March 31, 2009.  On April 13, 2010, the Company filed a second restatement of the December 31, 2007 financial statements in the Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007. Certain adjustments were made during the course of our 2008 year-end audit that had an impact on previously reported restated amounts for the period ended September 30, 2007.  As such, the September 30, 2007 amounts reflected in this report have been restated to reflect the impact of the adjustments.

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies

Organization and Nature of Operations

International Commercial Television Inc., (the “Company” or “ICTV”) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on June 25, 1998.

Strategic Media Marketing Corp. (“SMM”) was incorporated in the Province of British Columbia on February 11, 2003 and has a December 31 fiscal year-end.

The Company sells various consumer products.  The products are primarily marketed and sold throughout the United States and internationally via infomercials.  Although our companies are incorporated in Nevada and British Columbia, operations are currently run from Washington State, Pennsylvania, and British Columbia.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company generated negative cash flows from operating activities in the nine month period ended September 30, 2008 of approximately $2,833,000, and the Company, for the most part, has experienced recurring losses from operations. The Company had working capital of approximately $698,000 and an accumulated deficit of approximately $4,331,000 as of September 30, 2008.

Although we currently sell products through infomercials, the goal of our business plan is to use the brand awareness we create in our infomercials so that we can sell the products featured in our infomercials, along with related families of products, under distinct brand names in traditional retail stores.  Our goal is to have these families of products sold in the traditional retail environment in shelf-space dedicated to the product category.  We are developing the infrastructure to create these brands of products so that we can implement our business plan.  There is no guarantee that the Company will be successful in bringing our products into the traditional retail environment.  If the Company is unsuccessful in achieving this goal, the Company will be required to raise additional capital to meet its working capital needs.  If the Company is unsuccessful in completing additional financings, it will not be able to meet its working capital needs or execute its business plan. In such case the Company will assess all available alternatives including a sale of its assets or merger, the suspension of operations and possibly liquidation, auction, bankruptcy, or other measures. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of the carrying amount of recorded assets or the amount of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary SMM.  All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year data to conform with the current year presentation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.  Management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing its consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, include cash and trade receivables.  The Company maintains cash in bank accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.  As of September 30, 2008, the Company did exceed the federally insured limit by approximately $661,000 in its investment savings. The Company has not experienced any losses and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts. As of September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007, 94% and 74% of the Company’s accounts receivable were due from various individual customers to whom our products had been sold directly via Direct Response Television; the remaining 6% and 26% of the Company’s accounts receivable were due from three and four wholesale infomercial operators, respectively.

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value estimates, assumptions and methods used to estimate fair value of the Company’s financial instruments are made in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.” The Company has used available information to derive its estimates. However, because these estimates are made as of a specific point in time, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts the Company could realize currently. The use of different assumptions or estimating methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.  The carrying values of   financial   instruments   such as cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short settlement period for these instruments.  It is not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Note Payable to Shareholder due to its related party nature.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all unrestricted highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
 
Restricted Cash

Transfirst ePayment Services (“Transfirst”), ICTV’s credit card processing vendor for VISA and Mastercard transactions in the United States, maintains a reserve fund within our processing account to cover all fees, charges, and expenses due them, including those estimated for possible customer charge backs. These reserves are updated periodically by Transfirst and maintained for a rolling 180 days of activity. Based upon established levels of risk, this normally represents approximately 2% of transaction volume for the period, and is considered as “Restricted Cash”.  At September 30, 2008 the amount of Transfirst reserves was $103,403, at December 31, 2007 the reserve balance was $63,719 and at September 30, 2007 (restated) the reserve balance was $70,583.
 
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances for returns and doubtful accounts of approximately $96,000 and $82,000 as of September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated), respectively and $55,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007 (restated).  The allowances are calculated based on historical customer returns and bad debts.

In addition to reserves for returns on accounts receivable, an accrual is made for returns of product that have been sold to customers and had cash collections, while the customer still has the right to return the product.   The amounts of these accruals included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in our consolidated Balance Sheets were approximately $152,000 and $221,000 at September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated) and $166,000 at December 31, 2007 (restated), respectively.

Inventories
 
Inventories consist primarily of products held for resale, and are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.  The Company adjusts inventory for estimated obsolescence when necessary based upon demand and market conditions. Included in inventory is approximately $65,000 and $20,000 of consigned product as of September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated), and $55,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007 (restated) respectively, that has been shipped to customers under the 30-day free trial period for which the trial period has not expired and as such the customer has not accepted the product.

Furniture and equipment

Furniture and equipment are carried at cost and depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets ranging from 3 to 7 years.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. The related cost and accumulated depreciation of assets retired or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts and the resultant gain or loss is reflected in earnings.  Maintenance and repairs are expensed currently while major renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Depreciation expense amounted to $6,903 and $4,768 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated), respectively.

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to the future net cash flows estimated by the Company to be generated by such assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of by sale are recorded as held for sale at the lower of carrying value or estimated net realizable value. No impairment losses were identified or recorded in the fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated).

Revenue recognition
 
For our domestic direct response television sales generated by our infomercials, product sales revenue is recognized when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s revenues in the Statement of Operations are net of sales taxes.

The Company offers a 30-day risk-free trial as one of its payment options.  Revenue on the 30-day risk-free trial sales is not recognized until customer acceptance and collectability are assured which we determine to be when the trial period ends. If the risk-free trial expires without action by the customer, product is determined to be accepted by the customer and revenue is recorded.  Revenue for items purchased without the 30-day free trial is recognized upon shipment of the product to the customer and collectability is assured.

Revenue related to international wholesale customers is recorded at gross amounts with a corresponding charge to cost of sales.

The Company has a return policy whereby the customer can return any product received within 30 days of receipt for a full refund excluding shipping and handling.  However, historically the Company has accepted returns past 30 days of receipt. The Company provides an allowance for returns based upon past experience.  All significant returns for the periods presented have been offset against gross sales.

Shipping and handling

Amounts billed to a customer for shipping and handling are included in revenue; shipping and handling revenue approximated $976,000 and $574,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated), respectively. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of sales. Shipping and handling costs approximated $1,384,000 and $784,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated), respectively.

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Research and development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling and marketing expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Research and development costs primarily consist of efforts to discover and develop new products and the testing and development of direct-response advertising related to these products.

Media costs

Media costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling and marketing expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  The Company incurred $5,625,000 and $2,973,000 in such costs for the periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated), respectively.

Income taxes

In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we make estimates of our current tax exposure and temporary differences resulting from timing differences for reporting items for book and tax purposes. We recognize deferred taxes by the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In addition, valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. In consideration of our accumulated losses and lack of historical ability to generate taxable income to utilize our deferred tax assets, we have estimated that we will not be able to realize any benefit from our temporary differences and have recorded a full valuation allowance. If we become profitable in the future at levels which cause management to conclude that it is more likely than not that we will realize all or a portion of the net operating loss carry-forward, we would immediately record the estimated net realized value of the deferred tax asset at that time and would then provide for income taxes at a rate equal to our combined federal and state effective rates, which would be approximately 40% under current tax laws. Subsequent revisions to the estimated net realizable value of the deferred tax asset could cause our provision for income taxes to vary significantly from period to period.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to tax matters in general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Stock options

The Company adopted a stock option plan (“Plan”).  The purpose of this Plan is to provide additional incentives to key employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries in order to help attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of responsibility and otherwise promoting the success of the business activities.  It is intended that options issued under this Plan constitute nonqualified stock options. The general terms of awards under the option plan are that 10% will vest every 6 months. The maximum term of options granted is 10 years and the number of shares authorized for grants of options is 3,000,000.

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

The Company uses Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement Number 123 (“FAS 123 (R)”), Share-Based Payments, to account for stock-based compensation. The Company recognizes compensation expense in an amount equal to the fair value of share-based payments such as stock options granted to employees over the requisite vesting period of the awards. Stock options granted to non-employees are remeasured at each reporting period.

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

New Accounting Pronouncements
 
In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 157-3. “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active” ("FSP 157-3”). FSP 157-3 clarifies the application of SFAS 157 in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. FSP 157-3 will be effective for the Company on September 30, 2008 for all financial assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value in our Consolidated Financial Statements on a recurring basis (or at least annually) and is not expected to have material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

In June 2008, the FASB issued EITF 07-5, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock.” EITF 07-5 provides guidance in assessing whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock for purposes of determining whether the appropriate accounting treatment falls under the scope of SFAS 133, Accounting For Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and/or EITF 00-19, Accounting For Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock.” EITF 07-05 will be effective as of the beginning of our 2009 fiscal year. The Company is evaluating the impact of adoption of this EITF on its financial statements.

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157; “Fair Value Measurements”. In February 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2. “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157”, which provides a one year deferral of the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed in the financial statements at fair value at least annually. Therefore, the Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 with respect to its financial assets and liabilities only. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined under SFAS No. 157 as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under SFAS No. 157 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value. The adoption of this Statement did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

In February, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings.  The Company adopted SFAS No. 159  for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The adoption of this Statement did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Note 2  - Restatement

On March 3, 2010, management and the Board of Directors concluded that our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007 should no longer be relied upon and will be restated due to correction of an error in revenue recognition with respect to customer returns and bad debts.  On April 13, 2010, the Company filed a second restatement of the December 31, 2007 financial statements in the Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007.

We had previously restated our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 in connection with our revenue recognition policies. Specifically, we restated our prior financial statements with respect to underestimating customer returns for our infomercial products sales and the timing of recognizing revenues on product sales prior to the completion of those sales.

In connection with performing the audit of our 2008 consolidated financial statements, we obtained information from our order fulfillment contractor beyond that which we had previously obtained. The additional information brought into question the adequacy of our reserves for product returns and bad debts for the periods ended December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2007 as originally restated in the Forms 10-Q/A and 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2007. We have used the additional information to restate the product returns and bad debts reserves. We also re-evaluated our revenue recognition policy with respect to sales of our products with a free trial period and determined that revenue was not properly stated. As a result, we identified that certain revenue from 30-day risk free trial period should not have been recognized until customer acceptance and collectability are assured which we determine to be when the trial period ends.

In addition, certain adjustments were made during the course of our 2008 year-end audit that had an impact on previously reported restated amounts for the periods ended September 30, 2007.  As such, the September 30, 2007 amounts reflected in this report have been restated to reflect the impact of the adjustments as follows.

Note 4 - Commitments and contingencies (continued)

On January 5, 2001, WSL entered into a marketing and royalty agreement with Omega 5.  WSL shall have worldwide nonexclusive rights to manufacture, market and distribute DermaWandTM.  In consideration of these rights, WSL shall pay a royalty for each unit sold of DermaWand depending on various scenarios as defined in the agreement.  The agreement is silent as to its duration.

During 2007, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement with Omega 5 wherein ICTV was assigned all of the trademarks and all of the patents and pending patents relating to the DermaWandTM and was granted exclusive license with respect to the commercial rights to the DermaWandTM. The geographical scope of the license granted is the entire world consisting of the United States of America and all of the rest of the world.   The license remains exclusive to ICTV provided ICTV pays to Omega 5 a minimum annual royalty of $250,000 in the initial 18 month term of the agreement and in each succeeding one-year period. If the Company fails to meet the minimum requirements as outlined in the agreement, it may be forced to assign the trademarks and patents back to Omega 5.

Note 7 - Basic and diluted loss per share

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS 128), “Earnings Per Share” requires presentation of basic earnings per share and dilutive earnings per share.

The computation of basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period.  Diluted earnings per share gives the effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.  The computation of diluted earnings per share does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on losses.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007 (Restated)
(Unaudited)

Note 9 - Income taxes

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset because of uncertainty regarding its realization.  This asset primarily consists of net operating losses.  For the most part, the Company has experienced operating losses since inception. Therefore the Company has accumulated approximately $3,700,000 and $3,600,000 of net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state purposes, respectively, which expire twenty years from the time of incurrence for federal purposes. Expiration for the state net operating carryforwards may vary based on different state rules.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to tax matters in general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recorded zero interest and penalties for the quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated). 

The Company has not filed income tax returns since inception; therefore, the statute for all years remains open and any of these years could potentially be audited.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No.109 (“FIN 48”) which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement criteria for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN No.  48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition and defines the criteria that must be met for the benefits of a tax position to be recognized. The cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle must be recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FIN No. 48 and determined that such adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.


Note 10 - Subsequent Events

On February 25, 2010, we issued a press release on Marketwire that announced the cancellation of our plans to distribute the “Cell RX” product line.
 
On March 15, 2010, we issued a press release on Marketwire that announced the termination of our distribution arrangement with Allstar Marketing Group for our DermaWand product in the United States, with an effective date of March 13, 2010.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND PLAN OF OPERATION

Except for the historical information presented in this document, the matters discussed in this Form 10-Q, and specifically in this item, or otherwise incorporated by reference into this document contain "forward looking statements" (as such term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995).  These statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes", "expects", "may", "will", "intends", "should", or "anticipates" or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy that involve risks and uncertainties.  The safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, apply to forward-looking statements made by the Company.  You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties.  The actual results that the Company achieves may differ materially from any forward-looking statements due to such risks and uncertainties.  These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, and the Company assumes no obligation to update this information.  Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by the Company in this report on Form 10-Q and in the Company's other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect the Company's business.
 
The following discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and accompanying notes and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

On March 3, 2010, International Commercial Television Inc (“ICTV”) filed a Form 8-K/A on Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements.  As disclosed in that report, the Company found certain errors in the bad debt and return reserves amounts in our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 as filed in the Form 10-K/A on March 31, 2009.  On April 13, 2010, the Company filed a second restatement of the December 31, 2007 financial statements in the Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007. Certain adjustments were made during the course of our 2008 year-end audit that had an impact on previously reported restated amounts for the period ended September 30, 2007.  As such, the September 30, 2007 amounts reflected in this report have been restated to reflect the impact of the adjustments.

Overview

Although we currently sell products through infomercials, the goal of our business plan is to use the brand awareness we create in our infomercials so that we can sell the products featured in our infomercials, along with related families of products, under distinct brand names in traditional retail stores.  Our goal is to have these families of products sold in the traditional retail environment in shelf-space dedicated to the product category.  We are developing the infrastructure to create these brands of products so that we can implement our business plan.

Fluctuations in our revenue are driven by changes in our product mix.  Revenues may vary substantially from period to period depending on our product line-up.  A product that generates revenue in one quarter may not necessarily generate revenues in each quarter of a fiscal year for a variety of reasons, including, seasonal factors, the product’s stage in its life-cycle, the public’s general acceptance of the infomercial and other outside factors, such as the general state of the economy.

Just as fluctuations in our revenues are driven by changes in our product mix, our gross margins from period to period depend on our product mix.  Our gross margins vary according to whether the products we are selling are primarily our own products or third-party products.  As a general rule, the gross margins for our own products are considerably higher based on proportionately smaller cost of sales.  For third-party products, our general experience is that our gross margins are lower, because we record as cost of sales the proportionately higher cost of acquiring the product from the manufacturer.  Within each category (i.e., our own products versus third-party products), gross margins still tend to vary based on factors such as market price sensitivity and cost of production.

 
Page 24

 
Many of our expenses for our own products are incurred “up-front”.  Some of our up-front expenditures include infomercial production costs and purchases of media time.  If our infomercials are successful, these “up-front” expenditures produce revenue on the back-end, as consumers purchase the products aired on the infomercials.  We do not incur infomercial production costs and media time for our International third-party products, because we merely act as the distributor for pre-produced infomercials.  It is the responsibility of the international infomercial operators to whom we sell the third-party products to take the pre-produced infomercial, adapt it to their local standards and pay for media time.

In conjunction with its on-going business expansion, the Company opened its new operations headquarters office in Wayne, Pennsylvania on April 1, 2008. The office is managed by Richard Scheiner, who was named the Company’s Chief Operating Officer on May 30, 2008.

Results of Operations

The following discussion compares operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 (restated).

Revenues

Our revenues increased to approximately $4,958,000 and $12,029,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, up from approximately $2,594,000 and $6,098,000 recorded during the comparative three and nine months in 2007, a 91% and 97% increase respectively. In 2008, our revenue was generated solely from the sale of our DermaWand product simply because this product has received the highest amount of interest from our international and domestic infomercial operators and is also selling very well in the United States through our direct response television and televised home shopping campaigns. All revenues recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 were generated by our own products, as was the case during the comparative period in 2007.

Gross Margin

Gross margin percentage was approximately 69% and 69% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, up from approximately 67% and 67% during the comparative three and nine months in September 30, 2007 (restated).  Gross margin percentage increase was primarily due to the revenues generated from sales of our Derma Wand product directly to consumers in the US. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, we generated gross margins of approximately $3,415,000 and $8,276,000 for Derma Wand, and in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 (restated), we generated gross margins of $1,739,000 and $4,068,000 for Derma Wand.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses increased to approximately $4,698,000 and $10,618,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, from approximately $1,824,000 and $4,871,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 (restated), up approximately $2,862,000 and $5,747,000, or 158% and 118% respectively.  This increase is attributed primarily to four factors; $2,533,000 and $5,625,000 in media costs were incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to $1,088,000 and $2,973,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 (restated), $368,000 and $776,000 in fulfillment charges were charged during the three and nine months end September 30, 2008  compared to $181,000 and $403,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 (restated), bad debt expense was $443,000 and $1,048,000 for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2008 as compared  to $151,000 and $353,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 (restated), and finally $308,000 and $701,000 in answering service charges in relation to product sales were incurred during the three and nine months period as compared to $95,000 and $309,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 (restated).

Net Loss

The Company incurred a net loss of approximately $1,280,000 and $2,307,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared with a net loss of approximately $84,000 and $799,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 (restated).  This increased loss is attributed primarily to expenses incurred for marketing the DermaWand product on U.S. infomercials.

Plan of Operation, Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2008, we had approximately $909,000 in cash on hand, compared to approximately $733,000 at September 30, 2007 (restated).  Of the cash on hand, approximately $103,000 and $71,000 was restricted at September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated) respectively.We generated negative cash flows from operating activities of approximately $2,833,000 in the third quarter of 2008 compared to a negative cash flow from operating activities of approximately $591,000 for the same period in 2007.  The negative cash flow from operating activities was a result of the increase to accounts receivable, inventories and prepaid expenses, and increase to accounts payable.

We have a note payable to The Better Blocks Trust (“BB Trust”) in the amount of approximately $591,000.  This loan is interest-free and has no specific terms of repayment.

The Company has outstanding 1,157,000 stock options at a weighted average exercise price of $1.40 per share.  All option grants vest over a five-year period.  To date, a total of 74,000 stock options have been exercised, and 34,000 options at $0.50 for proceeds of $17,000 and 40,000 options at $0.30 for proceeds of $12,000. If the optionees exercise the remainder of these options as they vest, we will receive approximately $1,500,000 in capital.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company generated negative cash flows from operating activities during the quarter ended September 30, 2008, of approximately $2,833,000, and the Company, for the most part, has experienced recurring losses from operations. As of September 30, 2008, the Company had working capital of approximately $698,000, compared to a negative working capital of approximately $209,000 at September 30, 2007 (restated), and an accumulated deficit of approximately $4,331,000 as of September 30, 2008.

As noted above under “Business,” our goal is to use the brand awareness we create in our infomercials to sell the products featured in our infomercials, along with related families of products, under distinct brand names in traditional retail stores.  We will need to raise additional capital to execute that business plan. There can be no assurance that the required capital will be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.  If we are unable to raise additional capital, we will assess all available alternatives including a sale of our assets or a merger.  If none of these alternatives are available, we will be unable to continue as a going concern.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) defines “critical accounting policies” as those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Not all of these significant accounting policies require management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments or estimates. However, the following policies could be deemed to be critical within the SEC definition.

 
Page 26

 
Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value estimates, assumptions and methods used to estimate fair value of the Company’s financial instruments are made in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.” The Company has used available information to derive its estimates. However, because these estimates are made as of a specific point in time, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts the Company could realize currently. The use of different assumptions or estimating methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.  The carrying values of   financial   instruments   such as cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short settlement period for these instruments.  It is not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Note Payable to Shareholder due to its related party nature.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances for returns and doubtful accounts of approximately $96,000 and $82,000 for the quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated) and $55,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007 (restated) respectively.  The allowances are calculated based on historical customer returns and bad debts.

In addition to reserves for returns on accounts receivable, an accrual is made against returns for product that have been sold to customer and had cash collections, while the customer still has the right to return the product.   The amounts of these accruals included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in our consolidated Balance Sheets were approximately $152,000 and $221,000 at September 30, 2008 and 2007, and $166,000 at December 31, 2007 (restated) respectively.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of products held for resale, and are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.  The Company adjusts inventory for estimated obsolescence when necessary based upon demand and market conditions. Included in inventory is approximately $65,000 and $20,000 of consigned product as of September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated), and $55,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007 respectively, that has been shipped to customers under the 30-day free trial period for which the trial period has not expired and as such the customer has not accepted the product.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, long-lived assets, are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to the future net cash flows estimated by the Company to be generated by such assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of by sale are recorded as held for sale at the lower of carrying value or estimated net realizable value. No impairment losses were identified or recorded in the fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated).

Revenue recognition

For our domestic direct response television sales generated by our infomercials, product sales revenue is recognized when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s revenues in the Statement of Operations are net of sales taxes.

 
Page 27

 
The Company offers a 30-day risk-free trial as one of its payment options.  Revenue on the 30-day risk-free trial sales is not recognized until customer acceptance and collectability are assured which we determine to be when the trial period ends. If the risk-free trial expires without action by the customer, product is determined to be accepted by the customer and revenue is recorded.  Revenue for items purchased without the 30-day free trial is recognized upon shipment of the product to the customer and collectability is assured.

Revenue related to international wholesale customers is recorded at gross amounts with a corresponding charge to cost of sales.

The Company has a return policy whereby the customer can return any product received within 30 days of receipt for a full refund excluding shipping and handling. However, historically the Company has accepted returns past 30 days of receipt. The Company provides an allowance for returns based upon past experience.  All significant returns for the years presented have been offset against gross sales.

Income taxes

In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we make estimates of our current tax exposure and temporary differences resulting from timing differences for reporting items for book and tax purposes. We recognize deferred taxes by the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In addition, valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. In consideration of our accumulated losses and lack of historical ability to generate taxable income to utilize our deferred tax assets, we have estimated that we will not be able to realize any benefit from our temporary differences and have recorded a full valuation allowance. If we become profitable in the future at levels which cause management to conclude that it is more likely than not that we will realize all or a portion of the net operating loss carry-forward, we would immediately record the estimated net realized value of the deferred tax asset at that time and would then provide for income taxes at a rate equal to our combined federal and state effective rates, which would be approximately 40% under current tax laws. Subsequent revisions to the estimated net realizable value of the deferred tax asset could cause our provision for income taxes to vary significantly from period to period.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to tax matters in general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recorded zero of interest and penalties for the quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 (restated), respectively. 

New Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 157-3. “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active” ("FSP 157-3”). FSP 157-3 clarifies the application of SFAS 157 in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. FSP 157-3 will be effective for the Company on September 30, 2008 for all financial assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value in our Consolidated Financial Statements on a recurring basis (or at least annually) and is not expected to have material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

In June 2008, the FASB issued EITF 07-5, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock.” EITF 07-5 provides guidance in assessing whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock for purposes of determining whether the appropriate accounting treatment falls under the scope of SFAS 133, Accounting For Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and/or EITF 00-19, Accounting For Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock.” EITF 07-05 will be effective as of the beginning of our 2009 fiscal year. The Company is evaluating the impact of adoption of this EITF on its financial statements.

 
Page 28

 
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157; “Fair Value Measurements”. In February 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2. “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157”, which provides a one year deferral of the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed in the financial statements at fair value at least annually. Therefore, the Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 with respect to its financial assets and liabilities only. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined under SFAS No. 157 as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under SFAS No. 157 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value. The adoption of this Statement did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

In February, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings.  The Company adopted SFAS No. 159 for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The adoption of this Statement did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

Not applicable

ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time frames specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e).

As of September 30, 2008, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and within the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures.  During the Company’s internal review of its financial statements for the third quarter of 2008, the Company discovered that it was understating customer returns and bad debts for its infomercial product sales. In conjunction with this discovery, the Company also reviewed its timing for recognizing revenues on product sales and determined that certain revenues were being recorded before completion of the sale. As a result, the Company determined that it was necessary to restate its financial statements for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2007, June 30, 2007, September 30, 2007, March 31, 2008, June 30, 2008 and the annual period ended December 31, 2007 which have previously been restated.  As a result, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have since concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2008.

 
Page 29

 
Management is committed to improving its internal controls and will (1) continue to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist the Company with accounting and finance responsibilities, (2) increase the frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel, (3) prepare and implement sufficient written policies and checklists for financial reporting and closing processes and (4) may consider appointing outside directors and audit committee members in the future. The Company cannot predict when it will be able to appropriately address such weaknesses.

As of September 30, 2008, there had been no change in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2008 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. However, as a result of the issues noted above, the Company has since reviewed its revenue recognition policies and revised its internal procedures and controls to ensure that such transactions are recorded properly, and the company has restated its financial statements in this report for the applicable period.
